If i could i would, i dont have another pgm3, my other nsr has a pgm4
Nsrs are not common here and i have the only 2 around where i live, i can buy another pgm3 oit of austrailia but they arent real cheap so was looking for some advice first
If it was the normal problem of valves not opening it would be way eaisier
In another RC valve thread I gave the colours of the Valve wires to be used when testing the valveservo with a direct 12 Volt _________________ Poul

The servo moves to full open when the motor is started, normally they open with the tps unplugged and key on but not this onr
No matter what it doesnt return to closed or low position
It seems like you really need to try another PGM-III. Or send your PGM-III to someone else to try?
But, as that is difficult to do, maybe just to make absolutely sure its not the battery, try hooking up a well charged car battery via jumper leads, and try running it.
I have been made to look pretty stupid, due to what I thought was a good battery, in the past.
With race day looming, maybe you can just set the power valves permanently open (with the servo wires disconnected) and see if it will be OK at the track like that? _________________ [color=#808080][size=9]Yes,.. I too know how to waste Time and Money,...
OK, first things first. Ensure you strip the RC Valves out of the barrels, and clean them meticulously. Carbon build up on the RC Valves is the number one killer of PGM's. It's not hard to do, and there are countless posts on the forum on how to do it.
Second, when setting the valves, just use the TPS method for now:
1. Turn off the IGN
2. Set Run/Kill switch to OFF
3. Disconnect the TPS
4. Turn on the IGN
5. Set Run/Kill switch to ON
6. Set Run/Kill switch to OFF
7. Turn off the IGN
Adjust valves. Use a dowel or close fitting drill bit to lock the RC Valve pulley to the backplate. Allow 0.5~1mm of free play in the cables. To check them, pinch them by the servo pulley. You should be able to feel a little "give" in each pair of cables.
8. Re-connect TPS
9. Turn on the IGN
10. Set Run/Kill switch to ON
11. Set Run/Kill switch to OFF
12. Turn off the IGN
Now re-check RC Valve alignment, and repeat as many times as necessary to get proper alignment! Repeat a couple of times until you are confident the RC Valve pulleys align with the marks on the backplates as accurately as possible.
Often one Valve will go slightly out of alignment as you adjust the other. This is because it's easy to move the servo while adjusting, and why I recommend you re-adjust them a couple of times each. _________________ Andy.

set as per instructions on the site for the tps method and the bike runs well although difficult to get a feel for top end power up and down the drive but midrange is a huge improvement
if I move the pulley to where I had marked however the valves could still do with being a little more open, how can I get confidence that they are going right round
as they are (set to the marks) if i move the pulley as far as it will go they seem about perfect, does it go all the way around?
The fiddling never stop though as now its all together the float needles need replacing but thats another story
